Ida Ruth Barr

Ida Ruth Barr

In loving memory of our beloved Ida Ruth Barr who passed away 11 years ago today 2006.

Midnight stars gleaming on a lonely grave

Where sleeping, but not dreaming, lies the one we could not save.

In dreams we see her dear sweet face

And kiss her cold, cold brow, and whisper

As we loved her then, we love her memory now.

We think of her in silence

No eyes can see us weep,

But still within our aching hearts

Her memory we shall keep.

She bade none a last farewell,

She said goodbye to none,

The heavenly gates has opened,

A lovely vioce said, “Come”.

And with farewell unspoken

She gently entered home.

Our dear mother sleeps in silence

We’d not disturb her rest

Sad and lonely are the hearts of those who loved her best.

Love you Mom,

Sadly missed by, Larry, Debbie and Stewie and Bella
